Not sure whether this additional info can help but adding it: freezing does not occur immediately for the whole system; initially only one app freezes (any app); but within 1 minute the whole system freezes too.

Playing Youtube music videos (static picture + music, length 40-70 minutes) in Firefox (as background for other activities on computer) causes sometimes (rather often, up to several times per day) freezing of the system. And only restart through reset button can help. Initially I though that it is related to different Javascript-related tasks (manipulating with complex widgets in Chromium, running heavy gulp tasks through yarn) but it looks they are not the reason (or at least not the main reason). Because right now I have seen the problem when keyboard/mouse was not touched at all. That's why I think this information is rather enough; and I decided to post this bug. --- ApportVersion: 2.20.1-0ubuntu2.15 Architecture: i386 AudioDevicesInUse: USER PID ACCESS COMMAND /dev/snd/controlC0: kamil 2021 F.... pulseaudio /dev/snd/controlC1: kamil 2021 F.... pulseaudio DistroRelease: Ubuntu 16.04 HibernationDevice: RESUME=UUID=5b5ffc28-8999-4ad7-9ff3-f3298c4f28c2 InstallationDate: Installed on 2017-06-23 (252 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 16.04.2 LTS "Xenial Xerus" - Release i386 (20170215.2) MachineType: Packard Bell Easynote ENTE70BH Package: linux (not installed) ProcFB: 0 inteldrmfb ProcKernelCmdLine: BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-4.13.0-36-generic root=UUID=557e3c22-0c8c-44b3-a8f6-5446013327ad ro quiet splash vt.handoff=7 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.13.0-36.40~16.04.1-generic 4.13.13 PulseList: Error: command ['pacmd', 'list'] failed with exit code 1: Home directory not accessible: Permission denied No PulseAudio daemon running, or not running as session daemon.
